Synthetic Blend vs Synthetic?
3 Answers
You can use synthetic, synthetic blend, and conventional motor oils in any modern cars. You may also switch between them, back and forth, if you want. You can use synthetics in older cars too, but you might not be able to find the exact weight that was originally specified..... That oil weight you're looking at is actually a multi-weight synthetic: 0w20, or Zero W Twenty. You may also use that or 5W20.

I don't think it would matter in that car and I don't think you should use 0 W in an older car , 0 means 0 viscosity which to me sounds like there's nothing between the metal and the bearing .
No. It is designed for full synthetic oil so stick with full synthetic, blended oil could cause the engine efficiency to become lower thus ruining fuel mileage and may cause so loss of hydraulic controls like variable valve timing and chain tensioners due to different molecular make up.
